Summary

"Chicago is built on a foundation of meat and railroads and steel, but its identity long ago stretched past manufacturing. A city of opportunity from the get-go, it continues to lure new residents from around the world, and from across a region rocked by recession and deindustrialization. But the problems that plague the Belt dont disappear once you get past Gary. In fact, theyre often amplified. Chicagos glittering downtown towers stand in sharp contrast to the struggling south and west sides. A city defined by movement thats the anchor of the Midwest, bound to its neighbors by a shared ecosystem and economy, Chicagos complicated both of the Belt and beyond it." --, Provided by publisher
